The least visible,or deepest,level of organizational culture is that of ____.

A) means of communicating
B) shared assumptions and philosophies
C) shared norms and values
D) the organization's socialization process

Shared assumptions and philosophies are the least visible level of organizational culture because they are deeply ingrained and often taken for granted. They are the underlying beliefs and values that guide behavior and decision-making within the organization. Means of communicating, shared norms and values, and the organization's socialization process are more visible aspects of organizational culture that can be observed and studied more easily.
